ROYAL PALM BEACH, Fla. – Jim Fitzpatrick of Stratford, Conn., didn’t make a bogey enroute to a five under par 67 and a Minor League Golf Tour victory Wednesday on the Links at Madison Green.
After making the turn in 35 with a birdie at the par-4 seventh hole, Fitzpatrick birdied the next three holes, then closed with his fifth birdie of the day at the par-4 18th to win by one stroke. Jimmy Hazen of Jupiter also birdied the 18th but had five birdies and two bogeys earlier in the day to finish 68.
It was Fitzpatrick’s sixth victory since joining the MLGT in January, 2008, his first since last October. He received $1,000 from the $6,790 purse, raising his career earnings to $24,833.72.
The MLGT’s 17th tournament of the year drew 58 entries. The final event of the week is scheduled Thursday on the Eagle course at President CC, West Palm Beach. For information and entry, go towww.minorleaguegolf.com.
